To Update the NIS Server

If you are running NIS, you must update the NIS map on the NIS server
manually. If you are running NIS+ or you are not using a naming service,
proceed to “Installing the SunFDDI/P Driver for a Diskless Client” on
page 133.

1. On the diskless client’s server (on which you just ran

admintool

), note

the new entries created in the following files:

/etc/hosts

/etc/ethers

/etc/timezone

/etc/bootparams

2. On the NIS server, update the four files with the information taken from

the diskless client’s server.

3. On the NIS server, remake the NIS map by typing:

4. Change directories to the diskless client’s

root

file system.

5. Update the

yp

map for the diskless client:

6. Replace the

noname

entry in the file

/etc/defaultdomain

with the your

local NIS domain name.

# cd /var/yp

# make

# cd /export/root/

# mv var/yp- var/yp
